Blush & Bashful

It’s been basically a month since my last post and oddly enough I’ve missed blogging. There have been so many things going on in my life that I have wanted to blog about. However, a mixture of laziness and no internet has lead me to no blogging, 

      I’ve had tons of changes the last few weeks. I graduated college, moved home, moved into my grandmothers old house and now I am preparing for my graduate school adventure. 

I don’t even really know where to start or what exactly to write in this entry. Mainly , I just wanted to check in get back into the groove of writing. 

I guess I can start with Steel Magnolia’s. One of my all time favorite movies and a movie I watched at least 5 times in 3 days. That’s a lot of times to watch any movie. Fairly certain that I could quote the entire movie. 

There are several infamous quotes from the movie these are just a few of my favorites. 

• “If you don’t have anything nice to say come sit next to me.” 

• A personal favorite quote of mine because as a true, southern woman gossip falls into our 10 commandments. To keep a smile during a party while whispering salacious gossip is a trait mastered at an early age. 

• “Pink is my signature color.” 

• Normally this is not a quote one would choose to remember from a movie. But I like pink. Something that I hate to admit because I’m a girl and everyone expects you to say that. But I really do love pink and I too like to think that it is indeed my signature color. 

• “There is no such thing as natural beauty.” 

• This line is spoken by the one and only Dolly Parton. Now it might be just a line in a movie, but I truly think that she says this in her daily life. Someone can be pretty or cute or not-completely-unfortunate looking but without a little help/enhancement no one can reach their full beauty potential. 

     Just to go back to my love of pink, I would like to insert a tid-bit of movie knowledge. Shelby’s wedding colors are “Blush and Bashful. I have chosen two shades of pink, one is much deeper than the other.”
